[0066] It should be noted that the card number reading method and the card number reading device provided by the present disclosure can be used in the financial field, such as banks and other financial institutions, and can also be used in any field other than the financial field, such as hospitals and other health fields. Therefore, the application field of the card number reading method and the card number reading device provided by the present disclosure is not limited.

[0067] Figure 1 The structure diagram of the card number reading device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0068] like Figure 1 As shown, the card number reading device may include a card reading box 100 , a card input box 200 , a conveying device 110 , a card number recognition device 120 and a card adjustment device 130 .

[0069] The card input box 200 is arranged at one side of the card reading box 100, and a notch is arranged at the bottom of the card input box 200, and the card input box 200 is used to place cards. The conveying device 110 is arranged at a first height in the card reading box 100, and the conveying device 110 passes through one side of the card reading box 100 and can contact the cards at the notch, and the conveying device 110 is used to convey the cards in the card input box 200.

[0070] The card number recognition device 120 is disposed on the top of the card reading box 100. The card number recognition device 120 is used to obtain the direction information of the card on the conveying device 110, and read the card number information of the card when the direction information meets the preset direction condition. The card adjustment device 130 is disposed at the second height in the card reading box 100. The card adjustment device 130 is used to control the working state of the conveying device 110 and adjust the initial direction of the card on the conveying device 110 when the card number recognition device 120 recognizes that the card does not meet the preset direction condition.

[0071] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the working state of the transmission device 110 may include a running state and a pause state. The card may include but is not limited to a pre-made bank card and membership card.

[0072] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset direction condition may refer to the direction in which the card number recognition device 120 can accurately read the card number. For example, the side with the card number printed on it may face the card number recognition device 120, and the horizontal (front and back) direction of the card number (letters, numbers or text, etc. and any combination thereof) may conform to the reading direction of the card number recognition device 120.

[0073] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when a card is placed in the card input box 200, the card at the bottom of the card input box 200 can contact the conveying device 110 through the notch. When the card number reading device starts to run, the conveying device 110 starts to work. Due to the friction between the conveying device 110 and the card, the card moves with the movement of the conveying device 110.

[0074] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the transmission device 110 transmits the card to the recognition area of ​​the card number recognition device 120, the card number recognition device 120 identifies whether the initial direction of the card meets the preset direction condition. If not, the transmission device 110 is controlled to be in a pause state, and the card adjustment device 130 is controlled to adjust the initial direction of the card so that the adjusted initial direction of the card meets the preset direction condition.

[0075] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the card number recognition device 120 recognizes that the card meets the preset direction condition, the card number of the card is read. After the reading is completed, the transmission device 110 is controlled to change from the pause state to the running state so that the next card can be read.

[0076] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the card number recognition device 120 does not collect a card within a preset time period, it can be determined that there are no cards stored in the card input box 200 or all the cards stored in the card input box 200 have been read. In this case, the card number reading device can be controlled to stop working.

[0077] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, by providing a card adjustment device, when the card number recognition device recognizes that the card does not meet the preset direction conditions, the initial direction of the improperly placed card can be adjusted, so that the card number recognition device can accurately recognize the card number of the pre-made card, thereby enabling the cards to be counted conveniently and quickly, reducing the labor cost during the counting, and thus realizing standardized management of the cards.

[0078] Figure 2 The schematic diagram shows the structure of a card number reading device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0079] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the initial direction includes a horizontal orientation; and the preset direction includes a first preset direction.

[0080] like Figure 2 As shown, the card adjustment device 130 may include a circular track 131 , a card clamp 132 and two moving mechanisms 133 .

[0081] The card holder 132 is disposed in the circular track 131, and is used to hold a card. Two moving mechanisms 133 are respectively disposed at both ends of the card holder 132, and when the card number recognition device 120 recognizes that the card does not meet the first preset direction condition, the two moving mechanisms 133 move a preset distance on the circular track 131 to adjust the horizontal orientation of the card.

[0082] In an exemplary embodiment, the first preset direction condition may refer to a reading rule of the card number recognition device 120 that the card number located to the left of the recognition area can be read.

[0083] It should be noted that the "left" in the first preset direction condition may also be "right", "front" or "back", which can be set according to the needs. The above "left" is only for illustrative purposes.

[0084] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the horizontal orientation may refer to the front and back directions of the card number. For example, the card number is printed on one side of the first surface of the card. Assuming that when the card number enters the recognition area, the side of the card with the card number printed on it is located on the right side of the recognition area, in this case, it can be determined that the horizontal orientation of the card does not meet the first preset direction condition.

[0085] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the initial direction does not meet the first preset direction condition, the card clamp 132 can be controlled to clamp the card. When the card is clamped, the two moving mechanisms 133 are controlled to move a preset distance, for example, one half or one quarter of the circumference of the circular track 131 or other distances, so that the adjusted initial direction of the card meets the first preset direction condition. After the adjustment is completed, the card clamp 132 is controlled to place the card on the conveying device 110.

[0086] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the initial direction also includes a positive and negative direction; the preset direction also includes a second preset direction.

[0087] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the card adjustment device 130 may further include two flip motors.

[0089] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the front and back orientation may refer to the orientation of the card surface on which the card number is printed, for example, the surface on which the card number is printed faces upward or downward. The preset angle may include 180 degrees.

[0090] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the card number recognition device 120 recognizes that the card does not meet the second preset direction condition, the flip motor is controlled to rotate a preset angle, and the card clamped by the card clamp 132 can be flipped so that the surface of the card with the card number printed on it faces the card number recognition device 120, so that the card number recognition device 120 can accurately recognize the card number of the card.

[0091] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the card number recognition device 120 recognizes that the card does not meet the first preset direction condition and does not meet the second preset direction condition, the moving mechanism 133 can be controlled to move while the flip motor can be controlled to flip, so as to achieve simultaneous adjustment of the card in the horizontal direction and the forward and reverse direction.
